Not all women, mind you. My wife is pretty frugal and has simple tastes.

But I am otherwise surrounded by women (at work, at school functions) who more or less demand "things," including jewelry, nice clothes, a luxury car to drive. They want trips to exotic locales. They even expect to be taken out to dinner on Valentines Day. Their husbands/SO's are obviously trained well, but I wonder what they are getting out of this deal. I suspect none of these chicks are putting out very much. And even if they are, it's still probably not worth it.

99% of it is to make other women see her and make the other women jealous.

Do I understand why? No. Except it has to do with animal instincts

They want these things to show off to other women and feel superior. It's not hard to understand.

Date/marry an Asian. They're as simplistic and submissive as it's gets.

In the past, they took advantage of the chivalrous expectations placed on men. Nowadays, social media either inflates their ego via admirers or enflames their jealousy seeing what other women get.

But that high pitched nasal accent thing is a boner killer man.

Because they are in a perpetual dick measuring (figuratively) contest with every other female on the planet and this is their misguided way of keeping score.

anyways the real lesson here is not to set their expectations to high in the beginning of the relationship. DO NOT shower them with gifts. Then they will become numb to it and just expect it.

It goes both ways. Nothing like a man driving a $50,000 truck pulling a $40,000 bass boat on his $60,000 salary bitching about how rich he'd be without the ol' lady spending all his money.

You're leaving out a lot of stuff. How about shoes, purses, clothes. Spa treatments. Hair and nails. House keepers. Nannys.

Modern woman needs instant gratification and does no work herself.

When you divorce them, they get everything.
